Siomay Ayam - (Chicken Siomay) Indonesian Dish

 Certainly! Here's a recipe for Siomay Ayam (Chicken Siomay), a delicious variation of the traditional Indonesian siomay using chicken as the main protein:

Ingredients:

For the chicken filling:

  • 300 grams boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1 medium carrot, grated
  • 1 small potato, grated
  • 50 grams cabbage, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons tapioca flour or cornstarch
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the peanut sauce:

  • 100 grams peanuts, roasted and finely ground
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 red chilies, chopped (adjust according to your spice preference)
  • 2 tablespoons sweet soy sauce (kecap manis)
  • 1 tablespoon tamarind juice
  • Salt and sugar to taste
  • Water

For serving:

  • Wonton wrappers or dumpling wrappers
  • Cabbage leaves or parchment paper for steaming
  • Fried shallots and chopped cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the chicken filling:

    • In a food processor, pulse the boneless, skinless chicken breast until finely minced.
    • Transfer the minced chicken to a mixing bowl and add the grated carrot, grated potato, chopped cabbage, minced garlic, tapioca flour or cornstarch, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

  2. Shape the filling:

    • Take a spoonful of the chicken mixture and place it in the center of a dumpling wrapper. Fold the wrapper over the filling to form a half-moon shape, then pleat and pinch the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers.

  3. Steam the dumplings:

    • Arrange the filled dumplings in a steamer basket lined with cabbage leaves or parchment paper to prevent sticking. Steam the dumplings over boiling water for about 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is cooked through.

  4. Make the peanut sauce:

    • In a saucepan, combine the finely ground peanuts, minced garlic, chopped red chilies, sweet soy sauce, tamarind juice, salt, sugar, and water. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly and the flavors meld together. Adjust the seasoning to taste.

  5. Serve:

    • Arrange the steamed chicken siomay on a serving plate and drizzle the peanut sauce over the top. You can also serve the peanut sauce on the side as a dipping sauce. Garnish with fried shallots and chopped cilantro if desired.

Enjoy your homemade Chicken Siomay with peanut sauce!
